It’s been quite a while coming, but a new version of ImageSizer is now available. Here’s a little look at what’s new…
Introduced as a part of our bid to follow ‘application best practice’, you can now enable or disable the custom chrome and window transition effects. There’s plus sides to both custom and native OS chromes, but the point is that it’s always nice to let you choose! The native OS chrome has better integration and performance than a custom chrome, but doesn’t always look quite so nice – and can’t have the same funky window window transitions. It’s also going to be more consistent with the window chrome of other desktop applications, and gives you a noticeable performance boost on lower spec machines.
Flash Camp Birmingham is now open for registrations – it’s on June 16th (2009), 12pm – 8pm.
It’s gonna be great, of course – is organised by the Flash Midlands user group, and is the first FlashCamp to take place in the UK outside of London. Luckily for all who are used to everything taking place in London, Birmingham is only a single train ride from London. 
There’s quite a few interesting presentations arranged for the day: http://flashcamp.co.uk/schedule.html and plenty of information on how to get there: http://flashcamp.co.uk/venue.html
Head on over to the website to register, and turn up on the day! (It’s free!)
